position-sizing

Position size calculation requires your account size, entry price, and stop loss to determine the optimal trade volume. By applying a fixed fractional risk model, it scales exposure to risk a set percentage of capital, preventing over-leveraging and ensuring capital preservation.

The Kelly Criterion is a quantitative position sizing method that calculates optimal trade size using your statistical edge, specifically your win rate and payoff ratio. It scales exposure to maximize long-term capital growth while preventing over-leveraging based on your proven advantage.

Volatility-adjusted position sizing scales your trade size based on market volatility measured by ATR. When market volatility increases, the recommended position size decreases proportionally, maintaining consistent risk levels across varying market conditions and preventing over-leveraging during turbulent periods.

Yes, liquidity-constrained position sizing limits your trade size based on the available depth in token pool liquidity. This prevents over-leveraging by ensuring your recommended position size does not exceed the market's capacity to absorb the trade without causing excessive slippage.

The best way to prevent over-leveraging is to calculate position size using multiple quantitative methods like fixed fractional and volatility-adjusted approaches. By scaling exposure based on account size, market volatility, and statistical edge, you ensure capital preservation while optimizing long-term growth.
